URL Name (Zooboing)
Zooboing came about when my wife and I decided we needed to get a URL address but wanted it to be easy to remember and fun.  We rejected sappy URLs like sunset.com or oceanbreeze.org.  These URLs didn't jump up and say HELLO, they just laid there on your good rug and snored loudly.  After some thought I gave up and popped in Monty Python's The Holly Grail, sat down and started laughing.  If you recall, the Knights who say 'Ni' changed their names to the Knights who say, Ikiee Ikiee Fatang Zooboing.  Well, the bells went off in my head and Zooboing clicked for both my wife and I.  We bought the domain the next day and have been playing with it ever since. 
 
Software to make this all work
My side of Zooboing is created using Microsoft Front Page and a bit of hand coded HTML.  I'm not a HTML wizard like my wife but I know a little bit to try to fix some bugs and hammer a few things in place.  All the graphic images (jpg, gif, etc) on this website have been created or edited by me using Photoshop and Image Ready.  My wife's uses Flash oriented software to manage her side of the site.  Check out her side of zooboing to learn more.
 
Site Layout
Most of the work in my portfolio is cross referenced throughout the site.  This makes it easy for people to hop around but sometimes a link will become broken.  If you find this, I do apologize.  I have tried testing the site thoroughly, and believe it should work without a hitch.  Please note that sometimes, web servers get bogged down and a page will not load.  If it does this, just try clicking on the page again, it will then normally load as it should.
 
Portfolio Work
The Photoshop and 3DStudio work are the most recent addition to my site.  I am proud of my work!  But like most artists I may become bored with a piece over time and will recreate it... so you may notice some things changing over time.  I also like to show my work off LARGE.  I don't like how some artist hide behind small images.  I know, they are afraid their art will get ripped off the web and used without their permission, but I believe that people don't want to squint at art, they want to view it and experience it.  If one of my pieces is used without permission then that is when left brain attorneys get involved.  Everything in life carries a risk, but without taking risks, you get nowhere.
